Chapter 3
A/N: Sorry, haven't updated in a long time. Getting a review asking me why I haven't updated yet, made me eager to respond. I haven't felt much inspiration, lately. SO if this sucks, I'll ask someone to help redo it... so here goes.
Elena's POV
During Kol's and my's argument, I saw Elijah through the corner of my eyes, and wondered why he was here. Once Kol saw where my attention went, he grabbed me and pulled me behind his burly chest, to show possession. I knew at one time, Kol believed Elijah had feelings for me, and that was before Kol and I had...connected. So, I can only imagine what he's feeling now that we're together. When Kol pulled me behind him, he growled towards Elijah and when Elijah walked up...well let's just say he wasn't too pleased.
"Hello, Elena. I see you have my younger brother to keep you company, I remember all those late-night negotiations, and when that was me that held your attention." This time, it was time for Klaus to growl, causing Caroline to show a sudden interest. I assumed Klaus only growled because he knew what Elijah and I were discussing, but it felt like so much more.
"Elijah, it's so good to see you out and about, but if you'll excuse me, Kol and I were discussing some very critical things. So, see ya." That was when Kol spun around to face me and wrapped his hands around my waist, and then kissed me. The kiss was technically our first, but it felt like we'd been doing it for moths, years even.
Caroline's POV
In that moment, when Klaus took up for Elena, I felt betrayed and jealous. And those were emotions I don't like to feel, and I never have felt. Whatever, right? I mean Elena is obviously going out with Kol, so Klaus is all mine. Everyone, in this town, seems to have immaculate timing, because Bonnie chose this particular period to waltz in, and glare at us with those judgmental eyes of hers. She must've seen what was going on, but walking over when emotions are swimming around the room and new relationships are revealed, was NOT exactly smart on her part.
"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?" Boomed Bonnie. Booming Bonnie, that's her new nickname, since she likes to shout and yell at everyone.
"Chill Bennett, or not. I couldn't care less, since we're leaving." Kol said, and threw his arm across Elena's shoulder. When Bonnie saw that Elena didn't mind at all, realization struck her.
"My spell..." Bonnie murmured,"I have to reverse it, now. The Originals can't be your soul mates."
No One's POV
Once Kol and Elena left, there was an awkward silence between Klaus and Caroline. Caroline was secretly ashamed and degrading herself for caring for him. Klaus was wondering what possessed Caroline to grow jealous, but then again, he always knew she was jealous of Elena. While Bonnie was chanting a reversal spell, much to Klaus' disgrace, but nothing happened. She lost focus, once Jamie stormed in, and crashed his lips to hers. Jeremy saw this, stomped over, fuming, and socked in square in the mouth. Klaus pulled him off after everyone started staring, yet again, so Caroline, once again, compelled them to not remember and look away.
"Why did you just kiss my girlfriend?!" Jeremy was about to explode, and no one wanted to be there when he did.
"Sh- huh? Whay... she has a boyfriend?" Jamie's words were slurred from his severe beating to the face.
"DING, DING, DING! You're so smart!" And with that Jeremy left, smoke practically coming out from his ears.
Kol's POV
These feelings, emotions, are nothing I've ever experienced before. Love. Hurt. Anger. Jealousy. Possession. Protectiveness. All of those things, are not what I would've wanted to feel an hour ago. But now that I have felt them, I never want them to go away. I've had flings, but nothing compared to what I feel for Elena, and what, I hope, she feels for me. Why, though? Why does Elena feel for me.
"The spell," I heard the witch murmur, using my super hearing.
"What spell did Bonnie do? Is this some kind of a trick?" I whispered creepily low. So low, that if I went any lower she surely wouldn't have heard me.
"About ten minutes before you came over, Bonnie put no gloom, no doom spell on Caroline and myself. This spell enhanced our soul mates to be drawn to us. In my case you. Caroline, sadly, got Klaus."She paused,"Why?"
Why? That single word echoed and bounced around my head, causing me to truly think about...why. Why? Why? Why?
"I...don't, know." I blurted out, trusting my gut, that was telling me to be honest.
"You have doubts." She accused. Do I? No, I'm just curious and wondrous about my newly found out feelings. These are completely and shockingly new to me. I'm allowing myself to turn soft, into a caring, heartfelt, vampire...original vampire. But Klaus is doing it with Caroline, and Elena. So why can't I? I can, I declared.
